Doona Carseat and Stroller Review | Is it worth the money?

[@meagan1207]

I’m a mom to be and this was super helpful! Definitely think we’re going to go with the Doona! And I’m going to be a girl mom 💕💕💕 so I love that I came across your channel! 😊

[@girlmomthings9560]

You will love it girl! YAY, another girl mom 😊 Little girls are so much fun!

[@jesystar]

How long did the doona last for you? Or how old was your baby when you stopped using it?

[@craftingwithcharm7665]

I wanted to buy this for my daughter in-law but she chose to go with the common ones that attach the car seat to the stroller which was bulkier. I tried to explain to her the convenience of this one but she had her heart set on the other. I wish this little stroller was around when my children were little. Those car seats do get heavy while holding it with baby in it, I remember those days! Lol Great demonstration.

[@Jade-tf5kb]

I can understand why your daughter in law decided against it because you can only keep a baby in it for two hours because it doesn’t go down

[@ruukibane301]

Well, a permanent indent in her atm and seeing others using their Donna's will make her rethink next time.

[@ruukibane301]

@@Jade-tf5kb what are you even taking about? My child was perfectly fine in it for more than 2 hrs sleeping or awake. Obviously, your child had some issues with it, not the majority of children.

[@SadiaChowdhury]

@@ruukibane301 It's not safe to keep babies in car seats for over 2 hours in general. It's not just for doona, but it's for all car seats.

[@aliciahernandez6490]

I wish the car seat was adjustable so baby can lay down flat when in stroller mode!

[@sk-nb5tl]

Yes theres a time limit on their use

[@foreverjazy6849]

The Cybex does that runs about $499

[@zohars]

About 4:40 into the video there's mention of carseat positioning of the handle which is incorrect. The handle needs to be forward but not extended inorder to act as a rebound bar in case of a car crash to provide the enhanced safety many other car seats lack.

[@girlmomthings9560]

Hi Zohar! You're right! I find it easier to put the carseat in the car with the handle upright, so it's not in the way. But, yes, while the car is in motion the handle should be forward.

[@topbanana4943]

Was gonna say exactly the same x

[@erickr9187]

I’m due in November with our first! A baby girl! 🩰✨🎀I purchased the Doona two days ago and cannot wait! So happy I found your channel! 🥰Excellent review!

[@drock840]

Hi. Where’d you purchase?

[@erickr9187]

@@drock840 the Doona website. I signed up for in stock alerts. I suggest signing up for all the colors. You can always buy the canopy a different color for like $40. The Doona is hard to get your hands on right now

[@girlmomthings9560]

Hi ❤️ Baby Girls are the best. Welcome to the Girl Mom club, it's amazing here 🎀😉 I'm so happy we found each other. Thank you so much for your sweet words😘 Good Luck Mama, You're so close🍼👶🏼

[@mashalarender2464]

Thanks you did a amazing job it helped me alot

[@nicole0sorbet]

I am really considering the doona, would you know how safe it is to jog with, or is it just safer for walking

[@LisaYCarrillo]

How tall are you does your feet hit the wheels when walking I’m not tall but my husband is 5”9 so would it be too short

[@girlmomthings9560]

I'm 5'6 and its perfectly comfortable to me. My husband is 6'0 and he does mention how short it is for him. However, my mom is 5'9, and she never mentioned any issues when she was using it. My opinion: I don't think it would bother him too much. My husband and I both LOVE the convenience! Nope, don't have any issues with my feet hitting the wheels. Hope this helps!

[@LisaYCarrillo]

@@girlmomthings9560 yes very helpful thank you so much.

[@LeninGlass]

The wheel issue, try push it forward before collapsing. If you pull backwards, the wheels swivel and hit the wheel well incorrectly.

[@girlmomthings9560]

Yes! This works well!!!

[@Terraaay]

So what will you look into getting when they’re at the toddler stage ? I think that’s why the price is throwing me off . I would have to buy another stroller after a year

[@navywifehealthy4ttc]

You can resell this one and use some of the funds from the resale to purchase a regular stroller etc. my friend did that.

[@Terraaay]

I think I will go with the nuna stroller . They have great options

[@briahawkins6176]

This is my third. I’ve never had something so fancy.!

[@girlmomthings9560]

It was totally worth the price for me. My daughter is about to be 6 months old, and it's still the best baby purchase hands down 😊

[@briahawkins6176]

@@girlmomthings9560 that’s amazing 😊

[@ItsMeDeeDee]

Great car seat stroller but a backup stroller will be needed because this only for newborn stages. By 6months n up need a bigger car seat n stroller

[@zohars]

The Doona fits inside of most shopping carts. I prefer to keep it in stroller position and pull a shopping cart behind me. I do want to note that I never have my child in the Doona while it's in the shopping cart.

[@girlmomthings9560]

Great! Thanks for lettings us know.

[@tiffanysecret8159]

How many maximum months baby can seat in this one ?

[@Yueyue244]

thank you for the opinion😀

[@MuvaBae]

Is it safe for baby to sleep in or is it best to purchase a separate basinet stroller?

[@karan00021]

Should be fine for couple hours but if any longer I would recommend getting a basinet stroller.

[@Jade-tf5kb]

2 hours is the maximum

[@ruukibane301]

Yes, 100% mine did perfectly fine. Literally, best thing anyone ever invented. Other people seem to have issues because it doesn't recline enough to their standards.... like really? I'll take this any day over some subpar carseat as well as buying a stroller just to put a carseat in which costs just as much if not more if you're looking for quality. The only carseats my children will ever be in are Doona and Britax. Safe and high quality.

[@ruukibane301]

The two other people have no idea what they are even talking about.

[@sk-nb5tl]

@@ruukibane301if u read safety guidelines ud understand. Doofus

[@wandaisratz]

Hi my baby seems slouched and uncomfortable in the doona he is 13 lbs so I’m going to reinstall the newborn insert hit he still seems super slouched any tips?

[@aprilslife6745]

How long do u use this for your new born baby ?

[@aaronrodriguez5877]

Thanks for the review! I am going to be purchasing the same exact one. It’s a really convenient car seat and is worth the money!

[@NubiSkye]

This was a good ideas but the problem is I’ve seen and known many people that use these for longer use then should be. They just use it as much as they would a stroller and a baby shouldn’t be in a car seat for longer then a couple of hours. Doesn’t make it different with this car seat because it has wheels.

[@meep2605]

Keeping my baby equipment black and grey.. baby toys, clothes n bottles colorful.

[@girlmomthings9560]

That makes sense!! I always start out saying that, then I cave for the pretty colors 😂

[@muzo]

Can you use this on a new born?

[@DestinyAmoura]

Yes, just pay attention to the weight because if it says the carseat is for a certain weight and your baby is smaller the hospital won't allow you to leave with baby in that carseat

[@SH-dn5qg]

what is the Max weight for the doona? Anyone know?

[@ruukibane301]

30 pounds. Idk why no one got back to you. I own one, that is the weight limit.

[@ruukibane301]

Absolutely its worth every single penny.

[@rosiebeto1066]

Hi. Where do you purchase yours? It seems to be out of stock everywhere

[@francescav91]

Ideal baby & kids .com has them not alot of choices in color though

where do you hang your diaper bag? also what is your take about not having a basket?

[@girlmomthings9560]

I have a backpack style diaper bag, so it's always on my back. I've never tried hanging it from the stroller. I don't believe it would, as the stroller is pretty light weight. Doona sells bags that are designed to attach to the stroller. I'll link a few below for you. It would be better if your diaper bag worked instead of spending more money, but at least you still have an option if you feel it's worth it. Not having a basket, has not been an issue for us. We've taken it for walks, the mall, etc. Never longed for a basket...cupholder though...I do wish it had a cup holder. Nonetheless, still worth it to me.
